Liv Tyler bundles up in fur-trimmed coat as she takes son Milo to school on snowy New York day

With temperatures in snowy New York down to an icy 20F, Liv Tyler made sure she and her little boy were covered up from head to toe against the freezing weather on Friday morning.

The 36-year-old actress was barely recognisable as she walked Milo to school.

She was almost completely covered up in a knee-length, Moncler padded coat which she layered over black trousers and green Wellington boots. Her hands were protected by thick, blue-striped woolly mittens.

Taking no chances: Liv Tyler was barely recognisable as she and her nine-year-old son Milo wrapped up warm for the walk to school on a snowy Friday morning in New York

Treading carefully: The 36-year-old held on to her lad's hand as they negotiated a treacherously slippery pile of frozen snow to cross the road

The Lord Of The Rings star pulled the fur-lined hood of her coat over her balaclava, which was high up over her chin and so low over her eyes it was a miracle she could see where she was going.

Her nine-year-old was similarly clad in a blue padded jacket with the hood covering a red balaclava. He wore thick green trousers, black gloves and trainers as he gingerly picked his way around the treacherous black ice on the pavement.

His mother reached out a hand to him and helped him through the piles of snow whenever he needed it.

Ice warning: The actress and Milo were covered from head to toe, with just a patch of face visible, as they walked around a patch of black ice on the pavement

Milo is Liv's son with ex-husband Royston Langdon, whom she divorced in 2008 after five years of marriage.

Last month, the brunette beauty was forced to deny reports that she was 'secretly dating' her Lord Of The Rings co-star Orlando Bloom, who split
from Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr in October after three years
of marriage.

'Not true,' her representative told
Hollyscoop of the rumours which first surfaced in Star magazine. 'They
have been dear friends for many years.'

Eyes down: The pair both looked down to make sure their way was clear as they crossed the road

A spokesperson for Orlando also denied the report, telling MailOnline: 'There is no truth in this.'

Meanwhile, she recently completed work on the film Space Station 76, starring Patrick Wilson and Matt Bomer.

And her Jamie Marks Is Dead, about a high school teen haunted by a dead classmate, played at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, this month.

Not so nice ice, baby: Liv pulled her balaclava up so that only her eyes were showing as she walked home
